Cover with putty and super glue and fire.

Seriously though. What should I do. Is already gonna grow all over or if I take the coral in a freshwater dip will it die? I don't think I can get a peppermint shrimp cause my wrasse just ate my cleaner shrimp

Covering it with putty and/or super glue is actually a fairly effective way to get rid of it. You could also inject it with boiling water. Be on the lookout for more though because they tend to spread.

I agree, superglue the crap out of it. It will try to shrink into whatever hole/liverock its attached to. So be aware youll probably use half a small tube lol I do anyway. There are zero of these in my tank thanks to my obsessive supergluing

Smoke it

Hit it with a small syringe of calcuim
